Two images of Bucks in the snow.


Top Image. This is the 10 point Buck that was wounded about two months ago last Fall. He seems to be doing quite well now although there is still some evidence of puss oozing from the wound near his left shoulder. I suspect that there is some foreign object embedded that may be causing infection. Other than that, he looks healthy. He and the smaller six point Buck shown in the next image are the only two Bucks remaining with the herd of about 20 Does and Fawns that reside in this area of the reserve. The other larger Bucks have all disappeared back into the woods.


Six point Buck. This Buck is subordinate to the larger 10 pointer; however, he is second in command when it comes to chasing away the Does and Fawns when food is at hand..
